I don't care how much money Al Davis is paying this guy. As soon as plausible, Darrius Harris-Bey needs to see less of the football field, and more of the film room. He is a liability in the passing game...

A healthy Justin Miller is as good as any return man in the league right now, on any team. I was disappointed when I heard that he had been cut from the 53 man roster, but at the same time, I understood it...

I want a guy who can take a snap and hand the ball off to the most talented trio of halfbacks in the NFL. Why am I looking for this guy? Because that guy won some games last year. Five of them, which is way more than one...

Rich Gannon had a lot to say to the media this week with regard to the Oakland Raiders. I’m sure a lot of you have heard or read what he said about JaMarcus Russell, but here are some direct quotes you may not have heard in media outlets...

Oakland Raiders safety Tyvon Branch had a heck of a game against San Diego on Monday Night Football. If Oakland wants to build off their success in that game, they are going to need another good performance from Branch this week in Kansas City...

Like Mr. Burns from The Simpsons, Al Davis is starting to take on the image of a man who will live forever. Saturday, amist a wrath of recent criticism, Al Davis came out of hiding and spoke publicly for the first time since February...

When the Oakland Raiders go out and beat the San Diego Chargers on Monday Night Football, ESPN, I do not want to hear about it. When Richard Seymour shows up at the Raiders practice facility, Adam Schefter, I don't want to hear about it...

OK, so a lot of events occurred on Sunday in the AFC West. The first thing I want to touch on is the impending suspension of Shawne Merriman. Merriman has allegedly been charged with assault and false imprisonment of reality T...

This game sucked. What the hell kind of gameplan was this; let's see how many times we can turn the ball over and be pathetic. How will Tom Cable explain this, "um, we suck. Sorry fans." I mean, damn this was simply pathetic...

Talk about a big quarterback. Fellow Raider Jeff Garcia called him "the biggest one I've ever seen." JaMarcus Russell is listed at 6'6" and 260 pounds. In reality, he is probably like 270-275, but he is on the hush regarding his weight...

Let’s face it Raiders’ fans, it’s not going any better in run defense this year. Last night, the run defense was not great in the mid section, but they fared very well. On the outside is where the problem lied yesterday...
